    Uniforms for disposal

    I would like to sell [prices on application] or find a good home for the following. They are smart uniforms and particularly suitable for ACF. They fit 5'5" tall, 36" waist, 27" inside leg. The hats are 56 /58 cm - 7" in old money:
    1. Service Dress Jacket and Trousers (currently Colonel insignia but used to be RSM)
    2. Sam Browne fitted with clasp
    3. Herbert Johnson SD hat (Col) (this is tight and would be a better fit for 55cm)
    4. Samuel Windsor shiny brown toe cap shoes (6 1/2)
    5. Silk SD tie
    6. Various rank insignia including red tabs
    7. Brown gloves (small hands)
    8. REME stable belt (medium)
    9. No 1 Dress hat (Col)
    10. Mess kit jacket, trousers (with elastics) and waistcoat (Col)
    11. ACF titles for mess kit (gold on red)
    12. Embroidered beret badge (Col)
    13. Patent black boots (7)
    14. Liberty DPM silk scarf

    How much for the scarf seeing as winters on its way? Serious Q PM me.
    Some days you wake and immediately start to worry. Nothing in particular is wrong, it's just the suspicion that forces are aligning quietly and there will be trouble ahead..... Formally known as Mucus, before I lost the log in....

    Well two days of digging and searching in the general area and we still haven't found the cunting leak. Surely there must be technology more accurate than a grumpy old bloke in a yellow hi-vis coat, wielding a length of dowelling on a thread bobbin and claiming there may be a leak in the generic area known as "under there"?

    Lawrence of Arabia was 5' 5" tall.

    Is the REME stable belt a Red Herring? (Idiomatically speaking)

    And a Colonel too (ok, a Lt Col, it's hard being a pedantic cnut)!

    But he didn't live long enough to eat enough pies and quails eggs to get a 36 inch waste!

    He was a master of disguise. I saw him dressed up as Peter O'Toole once.

    Some might say. Grassy Knoll theories abound...
